Kentucky by the numbers: 100

Two Kentucky companies were recently honored as part of the SBA 100 project assembled by the U.S. Small Business Administration to honor 100 companies that have created at least 100 jobs since receiving SBA assistance.

Monticello-based Patriot Industries, which provides sewing and screenprinting services, has grown from fewer than 100 employees in 2000 to about 400 today.

Sterns-based Outdoor Venture Corporation, which manufactures products including military tents and hunting equipment, has grown from two employees when it formed in 1974 to more than 230.
